AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS -- (Marketwire) -- 10/07/09 --
Receivers of Van der Moolen Holding N.V. announce that one of the
foreign subsidiaries has received notification that it will
receive
an amount of EUR 32 million as a result of reclaimed dividend tax
related to the year 2008. The receipt will be based on the tax
return
of this subsidiary of the year 2008. The involved tax authority
has
announced the intention to start an audit on the tax return that
resulted in the reclaim. This audit will start in October.
The announced repayment and the result of the audit are of
significant influence on the estates of several of the entities
within the Van der Moolen group that are currently in the state of
bankruptcy, as well as involved creditors and employees of these
entities. In the current liquidation process of Van der Moolen
Holding N.V., the repayment will not affect the position of the
holders of common shares.
